PRAISE FOR THE BOOK OF MORMON FOR THE LEAST OF THESE When different questions are posed to the text of the Book of Mormon, it gives very different answers. Margaret Hemming Olsen and Fatimah Salleh have asked some of the most difficult questions of the volume. That the Book of Mormon continues to give remarkable answers, even if not always comfortable ones, is a testament to the undying inspiration that has animated it since its coming forth. That these two scholars have had enough confidence in the Book of Mormon to raise such questions will make The Book of Mormon for the Least of These an important work for a long time. -Joseph Spencer, author of 1st Nephi: A Brief Theological Introduction and The Anatomy of Book of Mormon Theology, Volumes One & Two With this third volume of The Book of Mormon for the Least of These, Dr. Fatimah Salleh and Margaret Olsen Hemming complete their awe-inspiring project of analyzing the Book of Mormon in its entirety using a social justice framework. Through unflinching readings of the book's depictions of racial violence, national failure, and traumatic loss, they show how it truly is "a text for our time." Readers of this volume will not find easy answers, but they will find a Book of Mormon that asks hard questions about what is required of those who wish to build a just world. This is a beautiful work of original exegesis, one to which I will return again and again. -Elizabeth Fenton, co-editor of Americanist Approaches to The Book of Mormon People have long wondered how our Black Americans could have survived their experiences while maintaining their faith. This is how they did it. This book works to embed faith in Jesus Christ and the scriptural Word into people's very beings. Although the title references those who have been forgotten or overlooked, The Book of Mormon for the Least of These is for everyone, regardless of social status or understanding of scripture. It is an aid in helping us to fulfill Jesus' charge to "be one," that as we gather to hear and understand one another by viewing through different lenses we are indeed gathering unto The Christ collectively. -Alice Faulkner Burch, Editor of My Lord, He Calls Me: Stories of Faith by Black American Latter-Day Saints
Book Synopsis Understanding the Book of Mormon by : Grant Hardy
Download or read book Understanding the Book of Mormon written by Grant Hardy and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2010-04-07 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mark Twain once derided the Book of Mormon as "chloroform in print." Long and complicated, written in the language of the King James version of the Bible, it boggles the minds of many. Yet it is unquestionably one of the most influential books ever written. With over 140 million copies in print, it is a central text of one of the largest and fastest-growing faiths in the world. And, Grant Hardy shows, it's far from the coma-inducing doorstop caricatured by Twain. In Understanding the Book of Mormon, Hardy offers the first comprehensive analysis of the work's narrative structure in its 180 year history. Unlike virtually all other recent world scriptures, the Book of Mormon presents itself as an integrated narrative rather than a series of doctrinal expositions, moral injunctions, or devotional hymns. Hardy takes readers through its characters, events, and ideas, as he explores the story and its messages. He identifies the book's literary techniques, such as characterization, embedded documents, allusions, and parallel narratives. Whether Joseph Smith is regarded as author or translator, it's noteworthy that he never speaks in his own voice; rather, he mediates nearly everything through the narrators Nephi, Mormon, and Moroni. Hardy shows how each has a distinctive voice, and all are woven into an integral whole. As with any scripture, the contending views of the Book of Mormon can seem irreconcilable. For believers, it is an actual historical document, transmitted from ancient America. For nonbelievers, it is the work of a nineteenth-century farmer from upstate New York. Hardy transcends this intractable conflict by offering a literary approach, one appropriate to both history and fiction. Regardless of whether readers are interested in American history, literature, comparative religion, or even salvation, he writes, the book can best be read if we examine the text on its own terms.

Book Synopsis The Pearl of Greatest Price by : Terryl Givens
Download or read book The Pearl of Greatest Price written by Terryl Givens and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-09-04 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Pearl of Greatest Price narrates the history of Mormonism's fourth volume of scripture, canonized in 1880. The authors track its predecessors, describe its several components, and assess their theological significance within the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Four principal sections are discussed, along with attendant controversies associated with each. The Book of Moses purports to be a Mosaic narrative missing from the biblical version of Genesis. Too little treated in the scholarship on Mormonism, these chapters, produced only months after the Book of Mormon was published, actually contain the theological nucleus of Latter-day Saint doctrines as well as a virtual template for the Restoration Joseph Smith was to effect. In The Pearl of Greatest Price, the author covers three principal parts that are the focus of many of the controversies engulfing Mormonism today. These parts are The Book of Abraham, The Book of Moses, and The Joseph Smith History. Most controversial of all is the Book of Abraham, a production that arose out of a group of papyri Smith acquired, along with four mummies, in 1835. Most of the papyri disappeared in the great Chicago Fire, but surviving fragments have been identified as Egyptian funerary documents. This has created one of the most serious challenges to Smith's prophetic claims the LDS church has faced. LDS scholars, however, have developed several frameworks for vindicating the inspiration of the resulting narrative and Smith's calling as a prophet. The author attempts to make sense of Smith's several, at times divergent, accounts of his First Vision, one of which is canonized as scripture. He also assesses the creedal nature of Smith's "Articles of Faith," in the context of his professed anti-creedalism. In sum, this study chronicles the volume's historical legacy and theological indispensability to the Latter-day Saint tradition, as well as the reasons for its resilience and future prospects in the face of daunting challenges.
